Biographical note
Matthias Dehmer studied mathematics and computer science at the University of Siegen, Germany, and earned his Ph.D in computer science from the Darmstadt University of Technology. He held research positions at the University of Rostock (Germany), Vienna Bio Center (Austria), Vienna Technical University (Austria), and University of Coimbra (Portugal), and obtained his habilitation in applied discrete mathematics from the Vienna University of Technology. His research focuses on investigating network-based methods in the context of systems biology, structural graph theory, operations research, and information theory. He has over 180 peer-reviewed publications, is an editor of a book series and a member of multiple editorial boards, and has co/organized several scientific conferences.
Frank Emmert-Streib studied physics at the University of Siegen, Germany, and earned his Ph.D in theoretical physics from the University of Bremen. After postdoc positions in the United States, he joined the Center for Cancer Research and Cell Biology at the Queen’s University Belfast (United Kingdom), where he is currently an associate professor (senior lecturer) leading the Computational Biology and Machine Learning Laboratory. His research interests are in the fields of computational biology, biostatistics, and network medicine and are focused on the development and application of methods from statistics and machine learning for the analysis of high-dimensional data from genomics experiments.
"... includes some papers with particular emphasis in the applications of quantitative graph theory. ... It is always very nice when we learn of such varied applications of mathematics in general and graph theory in particular. Most of the chapters should be accessible to graduate students. Some of them also include quite a large bibliography for further reference. ... this book fills indeed a gap in the discrete mathematics literature and is going to improve the status of quantitative graph theory." -Zentralblatt MATH 1310 "The editors have done a nice job collecting articles that will be accessible to most graduate students in mathematics. ... these articles will give an interesting taste of some exciting mathematics and give the reader plenty of ideas of where to go to learn more. If nothing else, this collection will convince readers that graph theory, or at least large parts of it, belongs solidly under the category of applied mathematics, and that there is very interesting work being done in the area." -Darren Glass, MAA Reviews, January 2015
